They’re not sure yet what it was: An explosion ripped through the U.S. embassy compound in central Athens on Friday but no one was hurt, a U.S. embassy spokesman said. Greek anti-terrorist officers were on the scene and investigating. It was not clear what caused the blast. “There are no injuries from the blast. The…

David of Thunder Run has an excellent round up of the reactions from the left and the right on Bush’s speech. He should be commended for reading so many reactions on the left 🙂 I think that I benefited from reading and not watching Bush give the speech because I wasn’t distracted by his presentation…

The insurgents interviewed don’t think Bush’s plan will work: Iraqi insurgents last night threatened to send President Bush’s 22,000 new troops home in body bags as details emerged of the new Baghdad crackdown at the core of his “surge” strategy. The Shia-led Government of Nouri al-Maliki reacted positively, but there is widespread scepticism as to…

Here’s an interesting article on General Petraeus’ strategy for fighting the insurgents in Iraq. It is based on the British strategy in Malaya: A key lesson General Petraeus draws from Vietnam, compared to Malaya, is that the US Army is historically unprepared to fight insurgencies. The American military has overwhelming force for conventional combat but,…

I love the look of the new iPhone but its price is really costly, $499-599 and the service provider is Cingular Wireless (since I’m in NJ, the provider of choice is Verizon). Its got some really nice features like playing MP3 and video files, WiFi, and it has a really neat feature that when you…

What??? How can they deny it, I’ve posted on it here. How can they deny what they’ve said and has been reported? At a news conference, McConnell accused Democrats of secretly favoring a plan to cut off funding for the troops _ an allegation that Reid and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. denied. McConnell conceded…

Bummer! I was hoping that we got them. At least we have some special ops on the ground looking for them: A top U.S. official in the region said Thursday that none of the al-Qaida suspects believed to be hiding in Somalia died in a U.S. airstrike this week, but Somalis with close ties to…

According to Drudge: Top Republican in Senate threatens to filibuster any attempt by Dems to block Bush’s new Iraq war plan… I was wondering if we had enough Republicans to sustain a filibuster especially when you see people like Norm Coleman blasting the President. It really is about time we heard some type of push…

Gates confirms what Bush eluded to in his speech last night and what Maliki told reporters that al-Sadr will not be protected: Asked if the new U.S. and Iraqi offensive would go after Muqtada al- Sadr, the anti-U.S. radical Shiite cleric, Gates said, “All lawbreakers are susceptible to being detained or taken care of in…

The cut and run Democrats are really living up to their name and I think they are going to live to regret their strenuous and obstinate objection to winning this war in Iraq: Senior House Democrats said yesterday that they will attempt to derail funding for President Bush’s proposal to send an additional 21,500 troops…
